Holiday Oreo Balls
Delightful and simple chocolate-covered Oreo balls that are perfect for any holiday gathering or a sweet treat for yourself.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 package Oreo cookies (approximately 15.35 oz)
- 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 1 package Chocolate coating or candy melts (around 12 oz)
- to taste Sprinkles, optional, for decoration
Instructions
Preparation
- Start by placing the Oreo cookies into a large resealable plastic bag or use a food processor. Crush the cookies until they turn into fine crumbs.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreo crumbs with the softened cream cheese and blend until the mixture is uniform and smooth.
- Take small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls, roughly 1 inch in diameter. Place these on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Freeze the balls for about 30 minutes to help them hold their shape when coated in chocolate.
Coating
- Melt the chocolate coating or candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring until smooth.
- Dip each Oreo ball into the melted chocolate using a fork or toothpick, ensuring it's fully covered. Allow excess chocolate to drip off before placing them back on the parchment paper.
- Sprinkle the tops with sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet for decoration.
- Allow the chocolate to harden either at room temperature or in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes.
